I'm not even sure where this shit is from, much less when ABOLISH AUTHORITY made this magic, but these four songs are fucking stellar crusty metalpunk, and I love it! The word "areti" (second song: "Operation Areti") is Greek for "virtue," the blank tape that this demo came recorded on has banal instructions in English and Greek, and if I listen to these tracks alongside ANTI and CHAOS GENERATION I can hear similarities...so I guess they are Greek? If someone knows anything about this band, please let me know. These songs have been on heavy rotation at Terminal Escape for several weeks, and I think you will enjoy them...if you don't, then I'm not sure what the problem is.

sounds greek to me. this is pretty rad. there's a lot of really cool old greek-my faves are GULAG and CHAOTIC DIMENSION. thanks for sharing this. there's some good "punk laughter" in these songs too.

hmmmm, i'm not familiar with either of those bands, but i know i listen to this over and over today. thanks for the comment as always...
Very nice blog. Definately a greek group. I used to attend their rehearshals back in the days. If I can correctly recall this demo was recorded around 1987. For more greek punk visit http://punk.gr/punkmusic/
Look for Ex Humans, Stress and Panx Romana.
Greetings from Greece
these bass lines are great.
"how fast is this song supposed to be?"
"well, how fast can you play this riff?"
magic.
yes they are from Greece, they formed in 1986 by two members of Ex-Humans, i think this tape is from 86/87 and must be their only recorded material.Ex-Humans were one of the legends of Greek punk scene of 80's. thanks for this gem and cheers!
this band had also split tape with croatian Generali
